Behind The Lens

Location

I took this just few kilometers east of Reykjavik in Iceland.

Time

This was at around 22:00 hours.

Lighting

I just had the on 3 seconds and 800 ASA. On a scale of 1 to 9, the aurora was this night at 8, so the the sky was covered in every direction with the aurora.

Equipment

I used my Canon 100.

Inspiration

Well, the aurora was spectacular, and probably did not need to go out of Reykjavik, because , light pollution is very low on Iceland.

Editing

There is no work on this photo, what you see is what you get.

In my camera bag

My Canon and my phone camera.

Feedback

Dont forget to have a tripod with you
